Re: online threat

It sounds like a lot of BS and I'd just ignore it rather than get into some e-mail war with the site admin and just get everyone's blood pressure rising!

Furthermore, the e-mail the site admin sent out was not CAN SPAM Compliant. He sent it to all registered users who presumably opted-in via the vBulletin form registration. That's fine, but his e-mail has a somewhat deceptive subject line and he doesn't include a physical postal address for subscribers to opt-out.

Also as MGD See Profile stated, it needs to be clearly labelled as an advertisement.

Tell the site admin to become more familiar with the CAN SPAM Act as he is registered in the U.S. »www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/bus···pam.shtm
